I am the God of Technology-Chapter 362 Supreme Authority
Chapter 362 Supreme Authority
Dante sucked in a deep breath and calmed himself down using various meditation and psychological techniques. After working up a wan smile, he decided to pursue his line of questioning.
"I can sense the limitless energy of Origo, but how do we benefit from it?"
"Oh, that? It's pretty simple actually. Origo produces near-infinite energy of a limitless quantity such that it can never be exhausted, so it doesn't take back the energy taken from it, ever," Etz Chaim began explaining boredly.
"All the gods have authority to pull energy from Origo to create limitlessly, but what they create has Deus' imprint minus Caela. What is created then goes through its natural lifespan and then perishes, especially in the case of living beings."
"Yet when they die, the energy they produced during their lifetime and the energy they consumed to be created should theoretically return to the source, which is Origo. However, it doesn't and rather stays here, permanently increasing our own energy reserves."
Dante nodded in understanding. "I see, okay then. I think I can understand why Luka created the multiverse then, and what the overall goal is."
Etz Chaim seemed heartened by this. "That's great because I personally have no idea. I always thought it was strange, but it has been fun to watch the multiverse grow so strongly over the centuries."
"Anyway, here's the 99% of the Authority I promised you." Etz Chaim suddenly said as she snapped her fingers.
Once again, a large chunk of mass surged through the root and entered the Quantum Gate, existing into Dante's soul space and then charging at his soul projection like a bullet.
Slightly more ready this time, Dante did not feel as… overwhelmed… as before. Whereas the energy went into his heart area, the authority went into his soul's brain area. The moment it connected with him, Dante felt a feeling of supreme power like never before.
It was a familiar feeling, just like his same old Quantum Entanglement, but like everything had been dialed up by a factor of 10,000 at the minimum. All those upgrades he had passed up, omniscience, creation, life and death, timelessness, were in his hands.
Even the powers he retained like replication, mass teleportation, or gate opening, bestowing powers, creating bonds, it had all been upgraded to a senseless level. Dante did not know how Luka and Myra felt, but he currently felt like a God according to the beliefs of earth.
He was not sure about outside the multiverse, but within it, there was almost nothing he couldn't do. For one, he could easily see the total number of universes in existence, their locations within the chaos, and even see what resided in the chaos.
He could destroy or create a whole universe at will, reset time, reverse time, or simply generate a new species if he wanted. He could also sense the various origin and above beings who had snuck into the lower universe through reincarnation, as well as the forest fairies who were trapped here.
He could see, create, and destroy all parallel timelines for each lower universe because each one had trillions of alternate timeless due to different decisions.
"Feels amazing, doesn't it? When I first received the authority from Luka, I spent countless years trying to piece it out. I haven't really done much though because I didn't want to ruin his system," Etz Chaim smiled as she made a circle round Dante's soul body.
"Right, don't forget to get the rest of Lara's clones. Without them, I cannot get the final bit of the authority that Lara stole and dispersed into them to permanently weaken me. That should be your main priority now, but it should be very easy for the current you," Etz Chaim continued casually.
Dante finally recovered from his out-of-the-world experience and focused his mind. He flexed his arms and felt the clarity of mind that was very normal to him despite the near limitless power, and was surprised he had not been overwhelmed by the trance he had been in just now.
"So this is what omniscience means…" Dante muttered with a wry smile.
He thought he would be overwhelmed by the knowledge of all universes, but it was like possessing muscle memory, or knowledge of a skill. For example, driving; when one knew how to drive and had been driving for years, you didn't consciously think about driving, it just happened in the back of your mind.
Likewise, everything was at Dante's fingertips, not overwhelming his conscious mind, but there for him to pick and choose when he wanted to. Omniscience was described as knowledge of all things in existence; however, Dante would describe his version of it as having the ability to access knowledge of all things.
But what pleased and surprised him was that through all this power and all this energy, he could still sense his now Eternal Talent, which was Technology. It was separated from these two new powers Etz Chaim gave him, as well as his Eternal Source Origin. freewebnov(e)l
So his Eternal body, power, and energy were free for him to use and cultivate as he willed, eventually raising them to the peak. Even if these grand powers he just got were taken away, he would still retain his Eternal abilities.
Dante glanced at Etz Chaim who seemed relieved to have passed off this burden. The avatar saw his unfriendly gaze and stiffened, quickly manifesting a crooked smile before retreating into her main body.
"Right, I leave everything to you, Dante~"
Dante's lips twitched but he decided not to pursue the matter. Rather, he manifested the 5 summoned beasts he always had who Etz Chaim had sidelined during his upgrade, and were now very confused.
With a point of his finger, they were reconnected to his Eternal Source Origin. Feeling the energy that sustained them return, they were first relieved and then suddenly shocked because the quality and quantity of energy was multiplied many times from before!
The energy felt like what they had before Dante became an Origin being, which meant that…
Dante had become an Eternal?!
"No need to think so much, friends, you are right. Still, you don't exactly have the full picture just yet, and I will disseminate it to you in time. For now, you no longer need to be confined to my soul space, you can exist freely in reality as true beings," Dante explained with a nod.
"Huh?" Levi was the most shocked. Simply glancing at Dante revealed so many truths as well as facts that he had never even considered and he found himself rapidly becoming overwhelmed by the slow omniscience that was descending upon him.
Luckily, Dante snapped a finger and broke him out of it, causing the Truth Beast to reveal a look of fear as he quickly exited Dante's soul space, refusing to look at his soul body again.
The other summoned beasts also left quickly, sweat dripping from their foreheads at the sheer power radiating from Dante's soul body. The fellow himself rolled his eyes at their antics and tuned to glance at Etz Chaim one more time before dissipating, merging with his entire soul space.
Dante opened his eyes in reality, located within an underground chamber that acted like a Faraday Cage. This chamber was deep below their estate and was usually meant for him to make breakthroughs without destroying whole swathes of area like he did in the past.
He sighed and patted his thighs before pushing himself to his feet, glancing at the five summoned beasts who were actually quite large in reality. The smallest of them, Dorothy, was about the size of a whole human head.
He initiated the release procedures for the Faraday Cage and came out with the group, only to see Beatrice and Antonia standing together at the entrance while wearing expectant expressions.
He smiled and took a big step forward, capturing the two into his embrace. Feeling the softness and warmth of his beautiful wife as well as the gentleness and reliance of his lovely daughter, Dante felt the pains of his seclusion wash away.
"I've missed you two so much," Dante said softly.
"Me too, Dad, I've missed you! It's been so long since I saw your main body, and your clones disappeared for like a few months, and Mom and I had no way to contact you, and…" Antonia immediately began a barrage of words that smacked Dante in the face as he listened with amusement.
While he listened, he glanced at his wife who had been silent all this while, lying in his embrace while enjoying his presence. Dante felt his heart ache because he knew how much Beatrice loved him, and he did not feel good about making her worry like this.
He knew his darling wife best, she was tough and strong on the outside but sweet and soft on the inside. He was one of her vulnerabilities and he always tried not to make her feel any form of pain given the suffering she had experienced growing up.
"Don't worry, Bea. I am here now," Dante reassured her gently with a kiss to her cheek.
